The countdown to US presidential vote: Biden maintains grip in opinion polls

SINGAPORE - Democratic candidate Joe Biden has maintained his wide lead nationwide in opinion polls over President Donald Trump, including in most battleground states, with just two weeks to go before the US presidential election.

Statistics in the battleground states are particularly worrying for Mr Trump who prevailed in many of them in 2016. And in those where he did not, his Democratic opponent then, Hillary Clinton, won by only a narrow margin. Data on Real Clear Politics has shown Mr Biden to be ahead of Mr Trump in most national polls since early this year, with up to a 10-point lead on some occasions.

More than half of the respondents in the NYT/Siena College poll, conducted between Oct 15 and 18, said the country as a whole was doing worse than in 2016. The respondents were evenly split on whether they had more trust in Mr Trump or Mr Biden to manage the economy. But only 32 per cent of respondents supported mandatory vaccination after a vaccine was approved by the Food and Drug administration. Almost two-thirds opposed such a requirement.

Those opinion polls are from the people walking in the street and not from the people in the house. Trump will win by a landslide. Obama has to bow down his head in shame.
